Zhao Hong glanced at Li Tang and smiled at the officials:
"Li Tang, give each of your brothers ten coins and drink some tea!"
Li Tang reluctantly took out the money and gave ten coins to each of the officials. The officials smiled happily, their doubts disappeared, and they thanked Zhao Hong one after another.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
This Duke of Ji Guo is indeed full of charisma, and he is as genuine as a fake.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work. I would like to express my gratitude to you."
Zhao Hong returned the favor with a friendly smile.
"Dalang Tian, farewell!"
The round-faced official Chong Tian Yi clasped his fists in farewell, waved his hand, and escorted Zhang San and others to leave.
They understood clearly that Tian Yi and Zhao Hong not only knew each other, but also seemed to have some friendship.
Anyway, there is nothing wrong with Tian Yi, it’s just a matter of favor.
"Wait!"
Zhao Hong pointed to Zhang San and others in front of the surprised officials.
"Brothers, since everything is fine, let them go. It's not easy to celebrate the New Year."
The round-faced official looked at Zhao Hong in surprise, then at Zhang San and others, and then laughed.
"Zhang San, you boy, you are so lucky! Brothers, let everyone go! Your Highness, I have to say goodbye!"
The officials let Zhang San and others go and left in an instant, leaving Zhang San and others at a loss.
"What's wrong? Don't you know how to thank someone?"
Li Tang had a dark face, reminding the confused Zhang San.
"The villain Zhang San, lead all the brothers to thank His Highness!"
Zhang San woke up from a dream and quickly stepped forward to thank Zhao Hong.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After regaining his freedom, the gangsters came forward one after another to pay tribute to Zhao Hong.
"Brother Zhang, for my sake, can you write off the feud with Tian Yi?"
Zhao Hong looked at Tian Yi and saw that he had nothing to do, so he cupped his hands to Zhang San and said.
Although he is a relative of the emperor, it is better to do less than to do more. Tian Yi still wants to do business here, so he shouldn't get too entangled with the bullies in these places.
This Zhang San looks powerful, majestic, and generous, which makes him somewhat like him.
In future generations, this guy, with his bald head and black suit, would definitely be able to instantly kill all kinds of cool bodyguard thugs.
"Your Highness is so polite. Your Highness's kindness will be unforgettable by a villain. A drop of kindness will be repaid by a spring. I will let this matter go to your Highness. If anything happens to Your Highness in the future, just let me know and Zhang San will definitely inform you." Always available and never vague!”
Zhang San looked happy and a little frightened.
Being able to be called "brother" by the dignified prince not only regained all the face today, but also formed a good relationship.
"Tian Dalang, I will repay this kindness one day!"
"The three brothers Zhang are all neighbors, so it's easy to talk to them."
Zhang San and Tian Yi each handed over.
"Brother Zhang San, I see that you speak well and are not ordinary people. You brothers are also strong and strong. A man is born in this world as a career. Don't belittle yourself. Sometimes, the reason why we are The reason to fight is not to be superior, but not to be trampled under the feet of those arrogant people. Do you understand what I am saying?"
Zhao Hong felt regretful without realizing it, and preached like he did when he was a teacher.
A dignified, seven-foot-tall man was dragged with a chain by a subordinate, his face was disgraced, and he had no dignity. It was really sad.
"His Highness's teachings today, Zhang San should take them to heart and take them as his motto!"
Zhang San's face turned red, he was sincerely convinced, and he replied respectfully.
Zhao Hong's words completely spoke to his heart.
"Zhang San, as the New Year is approaching, you brothers should take some money with you so that you can celebrate the holidays!"
Zhao Hong waved his hand, and Li Tang took out the money with a dark face and handed it to Zhang San, but Zhang San and the gangsters pushed him back with red faces.
"Your Highness, no reward for no merit. I accept my kindness! I'll take my leave, little man!"
"Farewell, villain!"
Zhang San solemnly bowed his fists, waved his hands, and left with all the gangsters, all gone in an instant.
Although everyone lives on the streets and cheats for a living, they do not kill people or deceive the poor. Thieves are also wise and have their own bottom line.
Zhang San and others left, and someone among the melon-eating crowd shouted.
"Your Highness, I heard that you went to a Washi to have a good time and were collected by prostitutes for your debts. Is it true?"
"Your Highness, you scolded Shi Miyuan in the hall, did he cause trouble for you?"
The enthusiasm of the melon-eating crowd continued unabated. Li Tanghei's face turned red, he pointed at the melon-eating crowd and roared angrily.
"What are you guessing? The dignified Jiguo Palace has a lot of money! His Highness was framed. Do you understand?"
Besides women and money, what else do these unscrupulous people know?
"Who believes it?"
"You powerful sons, what else can't you do?"
The audience booed one after another, obviously not buying Li Tang's account.
"Dear neighbors, do you think His Highness is a good person when he is going against Shi Miyuan? Leave now, don't delay the business!"
Tian Yi took action and immediately alleviated Zhao Hong's embarrassment.
Zhao Hong looked calm and didn't say a word. Li Tang retreated with a dark face. The audience had no fun watching it and dispersed listlessly.
Tian Yi looked at Zhao Hong with a smile on his face and a hint of joking in his eyes.
"Your Highness, now that you have become a prince, you have become less and less arrogant. Please come inside, I still have some good wine."
"Why, was I very arrogant before?"
Zhao Hong smiled slightly and asked self-deprecatingly.
Needless to say, since he became the prince, he must have been a villain and looked down upon others.
The key is, with power, it doesn't matter if you look down on others, but if you look down on your own people and forget your roots, you really are nothing.
"You were just like that before. You were unruly, a bit arrogant, and had a bad temper, but you were a pretty good person."
Tian Yi made an evaluation of the former Zhao Hong. He glanced at the things in Li Tang's hands, led Zhao Hong, and walked towards his butcher shop. He didn't care about the meat that fell on the ground around the butcher shop.
"All the bullshit airs are just pretense! They are just ordinary people. In a word, they are vulgar, hypocritical, flashy and disgusting!"
Zhao Hong made a disgusting evaluation of his predecessor.
"Your Highness, why do you say that about yourself?"
Tian Yi couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
This is not a sentence! Why are you burying yourself like this?
"Stop talking about me, it makes me angry!"
Zhao Hong pointed to the meat on the ground and squatted down.
"Tian Yi, you can eat so much meat after washing it, what a pity! Do you think you are Wang Simeng?"
Li Tang had no choice but to put down what he was holding and came over to help pick up the meat.
You can't just let the master do the work, just watch from the sidelines.
"Wang Siben?"
Tian Yi was startled again. Just when he was about to stop him, Zhao Hong had already picked up two pieces, his hands full of dust and oily flowers.
"I told you not to call me Your Highness, call me Zhao Hong, or... Zhao Laoer!"
Zhao Hong laughed and continued working without stopping.
The most generous person is the dog-slaughterer. This Tian Yi is talented, flexible, gentle, and a good person.
In his current situation, what qualifications does he have to be picky and choose others?
"Zhao Laoer?"
Tian Yi shook his head gently and smiled knowingly, his eyes full of yearning.
"I think back when we, the "Four Elites of Lin'an," swore to live and die together, those memories of our youth were so unforgettable!"
Who is that Wang Siben? Is his father rich?
"Who says it's not?"
Zhao Hong picked up a bunch of ribs and placed them on the chopping board.
"That Zhang San, what's going on?"
How can the fun of youth be taken seriously? Everyone has grown up. Whether they still have their original aspirations depends on their nature and fate.
Isn't he too despicable and shameless for always looking at people and things with a utilitarian mind?
"These guys are all playing fairy dance. I saw that it was not easy for the foreign merchants, so I ordered it. Zhang San didn't succeed, so he came to trouble me."
Tian Yi smiled, honest and kind.
"Actually, Zhang San is a good person. He is proficient with sticks and has good skills. Otherwise, the idle men on the street would not obey him. He is a foreigner. It is not easy for the two brothers. They are also neighbors. This is why I did not fight back. reason."
Tian Yi smiled proudly, frowned involuntarily, and touched the purple corner of his mouth.
Zhao Hong nodded slightly, with admiration in his eyes.
Taking into account the overall situation and understanding the general situation, this Tianyi is somewhat interesting.
"Your Highness, that Zhang San is indeed a practicing master. If we are one-on-one, I may not be able to defeat him!"
Li Tang added with a dark face.
"Oh, he still has this ability! Then why does he do this?"
Zhao Hong was a little surprised, then shook his head and smiled.
There are many capable people in the world, but there are even more who are not recognized for their talents. Just like Liu Bang, Han Xin, and Zhu Yuanzhang, what a miserable life can force people into!
"Tian Yi, with your skills and your Liuhe marksmanship, even that Zhang San is probably no match for you. It seems that you don't want to cause trouble, just go with the flow."
Being able to be recruited by the dignified former chief of the Great Song Dynasty to be the gun and stick instructors of the Forbidden Army, Tian Yi and his son could be the bodyguards of Zhongnanhai in future generations.
Being able to spar with Zhongnanhai's bodyguards shows that this bearded Zhang San is very skilled. This was an unexpected discovery.
“I’m just a person who kills pigs and sells meat, what else can I do?”
Tian Yi picked up the last piece of meat, stood up and looked at Zhao Hong.
"Don't talk about these things. Why did your majestic prince think of coming to see me, a butcher?"
The three of them packed up the meat stall, and Tian Yi led Zhao Hong into the yard.
Anyway, it’s getting late and it’s not too late to close the stall.
"Isn't it okay that I miss you? I'm tired of drinking alone, so I can come to you for a drink, okay?"
"Come to have a drink with me? It seems that your wife hasn't been found yet?"
It seems that Tian Yi is also aware of Zhao Hong's family affairs.
"Do you know how to chat? Why don't you open the pot and pick up the pot!"
Zhao Hong walked into the yard and looked around.
"Quick, prepare some water and wash your hands!"
Seeing Tian Yi bring out a white round ball, Zhao Hong couldn't help but be startled.
"What's this?"
Could it be said that there is soap in this era?
He had just come to this era, and in just two or three days, he only used hot water to wash his face and hands, and he didn't even notice what he was using to wash his face.
"It's soap balls, made of fat beads and stuff."
Tian Yi looked at Zhao Hong in confusion. Could it be that the dignified Duke's Mansion used other good things to wash his face and take a shower?
"I'll go! Scared me!"
Zhao Hong shook his head and started washing his hands with a soap ball. Although there was not as much foam as the soaps of later generations and it was not as clean, it was still not satisfactory.
Maybe one day, when he has nothing to do, he can make real soap and soap to shock the world, and it will be convenient for him to wash himself.
